We, the Dutta family would like to take this opportunity to write our experience with medical oncology team, Fortis Gurgaon.
We cannot thank enough to Dr. Mukesh Patekar and his medical oncology team for their 24/7 support. From the very beginning, Dr. Patekar and his team made us feel like a part of their family. Their availability, willingness to listen, and prompt responses to our concerns made a tremendous difference in our journey :)
A very profound oncologist who passionately approaches patients with love and passion.
We got a chance to interact with him and I can comfortably refer anyone suffering from cancer
His advice and approach made us have a new look and we were indeed grateful,
Thank you for your service

My name is Parul gondia I was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 2 in September 2023 when my world shattered after which my family started seeing doctor's all over best hospitals in Delhi NCR after meeting number of doctors they finally decided to get my treatment done from dr Patekar, my sister & Jiju met him without me but when they came home they told me that they have finalised a doctor for me who is Jen of a person , a very knowledgeable doctor studied from aiims and a very good human being.
Next day I went for my 1 st chemotherapy where I met dr Mukesh Patekar and when I met him it didn't feel that I was meeting him for the very first time ..he made me so comfortable which gave me so much strength and then all went well ..
I was so happy & positive throughout my treatment ,every time I felt sad I called dr patekar who consoled me ,gave me strength, heared me out whenever I needed him .
Iam so thankful to god for sending an angel for me .my treatment is still going on & I am positive that il be fine soon .
Thank u Dr Patekar & his team especially Pawan bhaiya for being there always and for taking care of me like ur family member.
Thank u for being my strength.
